completely clean, no emmisions

only takes a little bit of fuel to power several cities

that small ammount of fuel can last like 15 years depending on how much demand etc.

the waste Can be safely stored underground in some remote area (people forget it was mined out of the ground) (there is no barrels of toxic sludge like on TV...it's a rock)

It's very eco freindly and safe, there was chernobel but they were using sodium instead of heavy water which was a mistake...three mile island was very minor....the navy has used nuclear power for about 50 years now starting up reactors in every port with no problems, for all intensive and statistical purposes it's safer than any other form of power generation.

1. That the waste products can be used to make the most powerful and destructive weapon ever devised. Hiroshima and Nagasaki...

2. That we have never found a safe way to store the waste. it remains in exacly the same condition for 250 000 years.

3. Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. Chernobyl has a very large zone around it whichg will NEVER be able to nbe occupied by a living being forever. And that's a long time.

4. All the rusting and lethal, uncared - for and not secured hulks of the Russian Far Eastern Nuclear Fleet in Vladivostok.

5. The possibility that some of the hundreds of kilograms of plutonium which "go missing" every year will end up in the hands of terrorists.

These "benefits" may render our species extinct. That can only be a benefit to the rest of the planet if the nuclear industry has pulled the wool over everyone's eyes to the extent displayed here.
